I posted this here in MHSH because it seems a lot people who frequent this forum play at absolute.
I've put in a little under 30k hands there in the past month, 5/10 - 15/30 and am down about $2k for my efforts after this time. In my opinion, I'm running a little bad, but this is the worst 30k stretch I've ever experienced, and I believe it is due to the smaller (if positive at all)expectation I have in these games. In my opinion, the games are often super tough. Would you agree with me on this? How would you compare these games to those at other sites? If anyone is willing to discuss there results at absolute I'd be interested to hear that as well. Here's me baring my soul: ![]() |

The absolute games are pretty tough. There are usually a few SH prop sharks. I would stay away from them.

I've only played 5/10 and lower there. But at 5/10, I have seen many tables where the stats for the entire table are quite TAGish, like 24/17. I have also noticed that many of the 5/10 players are multitabling at higher levels simultaneously.
Games seem much softer at 3/6, on the other hand. |

Kurosh doesn't fold. Doesn't mean the games aren't tough.

1) I have been playing badly the past few days.
2) You will be 3-bet on that turn most of the time. 3) The only street I don't like is the river. |

Have you spent much time at 5/10? I usually find it tougher than 10/20 and 15/30. I can honestly say I've never encountered a worse 5/10 game anywhere in the world.
I have not played 25/50 or 75/150 though, so I can't really argue with you. |
